All change again for sylvester.

I installed Fedora Core 3 on sylvester last night, meaning that all my machines run the same distro once more. Sure testing Ubuntu and Mandrakelinux have been fun diversions but with limited time, and with Fedora Core 3 being excellent (RHEL 4 is based on it) and similar to my day job, I've come back round to the total Red Hat/Fedora camp.

Red Hat probably lost a some people over the switch to RHEL v Fedora, but I suspect a large proportion to come back since Fedora is a stonking distro and RHEL (and the cheapo respins like CentOS) are fantastically stable server OS which are dead easy to administer.
